The sun has finally made its triumphant return! Naturally, the best way to celebrate is by plunging headlong into the nearest pool (ideally yours). Before you do, though, it’s worth considering your decor options first. Whether it’s a luxe lounger or a pouf with playful patterns, there’s a myriad of poolside furnishings to choose from. In many ways, this is the place in the backyard where you can really cut loose and experiment with color and shape, creating a vignette with a carefree, tropical vibe. Or there’s the more minimalist route, with clean lines and plush neutral fabrics.
However you decide to dress up your poolside, it’s a spot in the backyard that’s guaranteed to get a lot of foot traffic come summer—so why not make it look fabulous? Here, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorites that bring poolside glam to your backyard, even if an IRL pool isn’t in the cards this year. Ready to dive in?
Pure Lounge Chair by Andrei Munteanu
Keep it simple—and elegant—with this classic teak seat. Pair with a bright throw pillow for a splash of color!
Sorrento Beach Towel
Doing laps? Make sure you’ve got a stylish towel to dry off. Sferra brings the Amalfi Coast style home with its offering—available in blue and orange color options.
Deck Cocktail Table by Henrik Pedersen
You can’t go wrong with classic teak. Bring a spritz to the poolside gossip sesh—and leave it here when you’re ready to dive in.
Lemon Waterproof Pouf by Myin
When life gives you lemons...make them into a chic pouf? We love the breezy, playful pattern of this piece, which evokes summers by the beach.
Santorini Outdoor Chair
Sit back, relax, and stay a while. The poolside decor look isn’t all about out-of-the-box color, but can be just as elegant and restrained as your patio or porch—case in point, this chair from Lee Industries.
Ocean Master M1 Cupola Parasol
Getting some sun is nice and all, but there are days when its sweltering rays will have you searching for shade. We recommend a beautiful umbrella like this one, which will make it feel like Palm Beach in your own backyard.

Antonio Citterio’s ever-popular Esosoft line of furniture gets an outdoor update. Available in different upholstery options, it’s a great spot for lounging and soaking up the sun.
36-Inch Pouf by Shore Studios
Who doesn't love a good ombre moment? Shore Studio’s pouf comes in a wide range of fun, gradient hues, but we’re partial to the purple-orange sunset look pictured here.
Leaf Beach Chair by Frank Ligthart
Dedon adds a new twist to its revered Leaf lounge chair this year, with a backrest that adds an additional layer of customization and comfort. It’s one of the more sculptural (and stylish) outdoor offerings out there.
Porto Outdoor Chaise
Catch up on your summer reading, yes, but do so in a suitably comfy chaise. This one is available in white and black upholstery, as well as the mod pattern pictured.
La Bambola Outdoor Armchair by Mario Bellini
The Mario Bellini classic—which was reissued a few years ago—gets yet another lease on life in the form of a stylish striped lounge chair. Available in bright red, green, and blue colorways, it pairs perfectly with a dip in the pool.
Margaux Outdoor Side Table by Carrier and Company
We love the versatility of this side table, which also comes in a white color option. Streamlined and chic, it’s the perfect home for your happy hour bev of choice.
